If you intend using humor in your talk to make people smile, you

must know how to identify shared experiences and problems. Your humor

must be relevant to the audience and should help to show them that

you are one of them or that you understand their situation and are in

sympathy with their point of view. Depending on whom you are

addressing, the problems will be different. If you are talking to a

group of managers, you may refer to the disorganized methods of their secretaries; alternatively if you are addressing secretaries, you may

want to comment on their disorganized bosses。

Here is an example, which I heard at a nurses' convention, of a

story which works well because the audience all shared the same view

of doctors. A man arrives in heaven and is being shown around by St.

Peter. He sees wonderful accommodations, beautiful gardens, sunny

weather, and so on. Everyone is very peaceful, polite and friendly

until, waiting in a line for lunch, the new arrival is suddenly

pushed aside by a man in a white coat, who rushes to the head of the

line, grabs his food and stomps over to a table by himself. “Who is

that?”the new arrival asked St. Peter. “Oh, that's God,”came the

reply, “but sometimes he thinks he's a doctor。”

If you are part of the group which you are addressing, you will be

in a position to know the experiences and problems which are common

to all of you and it'll be appropriate for you to make a passing

remark about the inedible canteen food or the chairman's notorious

bad taste in ties. With other audiences you mustn't attempt to cut in

with humor as they will resent an outsider making disparaging remarks

about their canteen or their chairman. You will be on safer ground if

you stick to scapegoats like the Post Office or the telephone

system。

If you feel awkward being humorous, you must practice so that it

becomes more natural, include a few casual and apparently off-the-

cuff remarks which you can deliver in a relaxed and unforced manner.

Often it's the delivery which causes the audience to smile, so speak

slowly and remember that a raised eyebrow or an unbelieving look may

help to show that you are making a light-hearted remark。

Look for the humor. It often comes from the unexpected. A twist on

a familiar quote “If at first you don't succeed, give up”or a play

on words or on a situation. Search for exaggeration and understatements. Look at your talk and pick out a few words or

sentences which you can turn about and inject with humor。

21. To make your humor work, you should

[A]take advantage of different kinds of audience。

[B]make fun of the disorganized people。

[C]address different problems to different people。

[D]show sympathy for your listeners。

22. The joke about doctors implies that, in the eyes of nurses,

they are

[A]impolite to new arrivals。

[B]very conscious of their godlike role。

[C]entitled to some privileges。

[D]very busy even during lunch hours。

23. It can be inferred from the text that public services

[A]have benefited many people。

[B]are the focus of public attention。

[C]are an inappropriate subject for humor。

[D]have often been the laughing stock。

24. To achieve the desired result, humorous stories should be delivered

[A]in well-worded language。

[B]as awkwardly as possible。

[C]in exaggerated statements。

[D]as casually as possible。

25. The best title for the text may be [A]Use Humor Effectively。

[B]Various Kinds of Humor。

名师解析

21. To make your humor work, you should 要想让你的幽默奏效你应该

[A]take advantage of different kinds of audience。(充分)利用不同的

观众。

[B]make fun of the disorganized people。取笑那些做事混乱的人。

[C]address different problems to different people。和不同的人谈不同

的问题。

[D]show sympathy for your listeners。同情你的听众。

【答案】C

【考点】段落主旨题。

【分析】根据题目知道本题考查的是“幽默须知”的内容定位到第一段。

文中说“要使你的听众发笑你就必须知道如何识别你和他人的共同的经历和

问题”这个就是本题解答的关键。加上第一段第三句话“Depending on whom you are addressing, the problems will be different。”(你的问题因人而

异。)[A]说利用不同的观众这个提法中的“利用”词义本身就有侵害客体的

含义让人觉得是在利用别人的弱点而且和上文提到的“幽默须知”显然不

符合。[B]仅仅是作者例举的一个例子用来表示如何和别人分享经历。[C]很

好地表达了第一段的主题。[D]错在其范围被缩小了。

22. The joke about doctors implies that, in the eyes of nurses,

they are

关于医生的这个笑话表明在护士眼里医生

[A]impolite to new arrivals. 对新人不礼貌。

[B]very conscious of their godlike role. 对自己上帝般的作用非常在

意。

[C]entitled to some privileges. 有权获得某些特权。[D]very busy even during lunch hours. 午饭时也非常繁忙。

【答案】B

【考点】推断题。

【分析】根据本题的题干定位为第二段本题讲述了一个经典的护士看待

医生的笑话将上帝比作医生那样表现的傲慢无理。考生应该明白这里实际上

是在说医生将自己比作上帝显得那么傲慢无礼。[A]只是医生傲慢举止中的一

项。[B]非常恰当因为它揭示了护士群体眼中的医生那种傲慢的感觉。[C]认

为获得某种特权是因为没有理解“St.Peter”的话被“医生把新来的人推

到一边冲到队伍的最前面”这个现象误导享有特权的印象是中性的描述

其实揭示背后所反应的医生的傲慢才是主要目的。[D]选项显然错误。

23. It can be inferred from the text that public services

从文中可以推断出公共服务

[A]have benefited many people. 已经造福很多人。

[B]are the focus of public attention. 是大众关注的焦点。

[C]are an inappropriate subject for humor. 是一个不适合做幽默的主

题。

[D]have often been the laughing stock。经常是别人的笑料。

【答案】D

【考点】推理题。

【分析】根据公共服务可以定位到第三段最后一句这句话中提到了“邮

局”和“电话”这两个行业。文章说“安全的做法是咬住一些替罪羊比如邮局

和电话业之所以安全是因为这样不会冒犯什么人”。既然是这样那么肯定

大家经常会拿这个“公共服务业”来开玩笑的。因此可以得出结论即[D]是正

确选项。[A]和文章的主旨没有关系这里也推断不出这样的结论。[B]说是大

众关注的焦点但是这句话没有表现出原文对这两个公共行业的一种戏谑的意

味。

24. To achieve the desired result, humorous stories should be

delivered

为获得理想的效果幽默故事的讲述应当

[A]in well-worded language. 言词适当。[B]as awkwardly as possible. 尽可能含糊。

[C]in exaggerated statements. 夸张。

[D]as casually as possible. 尽可能随意。

【答案】D

【考点】段落主旨题。

【分析】本文题目问的实际上是幽默故事的讲述方式可以定位到第四段

它指出幽默要“自然”(natural)“随意”(casual)“急兴”(off-the-

cut)“放松”(relaxed)“舒缓”(unforced)“缓慢”(slowly)“轻

松”(light-hearted)。只要考生看懂了这些词的意思这道题就很容易会选择

[D]选项。

25. The best title for the text may be 本文最佳标题或许是

[A]Use Humor Effectively. 有效使用幽默。

[B]Various Kinds of Humor. 各式幽默。

[C]Add Humor to Speech. 为演讲添加幽默。

[D]Different Humor Strategies. 不同的幽默策略。

【答案】A

【考点】文章主旨题。

【分析】本题考的是对全文的理解这样的题目需要对全文的通读和理解。

[A]能够很好地表示在文中作者教会别人怎样有效地使用幽默这样一个事实。而

[B]不合适是因为本文中并没有谈论幽默的种类。[C]仅仅讲出了幽默的必要

性但是不能体现出文中教人学会幽默的思想。文章中最后一段也提到不同的

幽默策略但是那仅仅是文章主旨的一小部分。

难句解析

1. Your humor must be relevant to the audience and should help to

show them that you are one of them or that you understand their

situation and are in sympathy with their point of view。

【结构分析】该句的主语是“your humor”后面有并列的谓语“must

be”和“should help to show”其中后一个谓语的宾语中“them”是间接宾

语加上两个并列的宾语从句做直接宾语“that you are one of them”和“that you understand their situation and are in sympathy with their

point of view”。

2. If you are part of the group which you are addressing, you will

be in a position to know the experiences and problems which are

common to all of you and it'll be appropriate for you to make a

passing remark about the inedible canteen food or the chairman's

notorious bad taste in ties。

【结构分析】“if”引导了一个条件从句而后面的主句是两个分句构成的

并列句。在第一个分句中有一个定语从句“which are common to all of

you”来修饰“the experiences and problems”而后面的分句的结构是一

个“it is +形容词+for sb. to do sth。”的结构。

3. Often it's the delivery which causes the audience to smile, so

speak slowly and remember that a raised eyebrow or an unbelieving

look may help to show that you are making a light-hearted remark。

【结构分析】本句是由“so”连接的并列句前是因后是果。前一分句是

一个复合句结构而后一分句是一个祈使句其谓语动词是“speak”和“remember”。而“remember”后面是“that”引导的一个很长的宾语从句。

全文翻译

如果你想在谈话中用幽默来使人发笑你就必须知道如何识别共同的经历和

问题。你的幽默必须和听众有关应该帮助你向他们显示你是他们当中的一

员你了解他们的情况同情他们的观点。根据你谈话对象的不同问题也有

所不同。如果你在和一群经理谈话你就可以提及他们秘书的混乱的方法或

者如果你说话的对象是一群秘书你就可以评价一下她们没有条理的老板。

这里就有一个这样的例子是我在一个护士大会上听到的。这个故事效果很

好因为所有的听众都对医生有同样的看法。说有一个人到了天堂正被

圣·彼得带着四处参观。他看到了令人惊奇的住所、美丽的花园、晴朗的天气

等等。每一个人都很平和、礼貌和友善直到排队吃午饭的时候这位新来的

人突然被一位身穿白大褂的人推到一旁只见该人径直挤到了队伍的前头抓

起食物大摇大摆走到一张餐桌旁。“这是谁啊”新来的人问圣·彼得。

“哦那是上帝”他回答说“他有时自以为是名医生。”

如果你是你谈话对象的一部分你就会了解大伙共同的经历和问题你就可

对餐厅难以下咽的食物或者总裁在领带方面差劲的品味评头论足。而对于其他

类型的听众你就不能试图插嘴地讲这种幽默因为他们也许不喜欢外人诋毁

他们的餐厅或总裁。如果你咬住邮局或电话局这样的替罪羊那你就处于更加

安全的境地。如果你在幽默时觉得很尴尬你就必须进行练习使它变得更自然。加入一些很随便的、显然是即兴的话的同时你就可以用轻松的、不做作的方式把它们说

出来了。常常是表达的方式使听众发笑因此要说慢一些并且记住要抬抬眉

毛或者做出一种不相信的表情这些都会有助于显示你正在说笑话。

寻找幽默它常常来的出其不意。恶搞一下名言“你要是一开始不成功不

如放弃”或者是玩文字游戏和戏谑某个场景。寻找夸张用语和打折扣的话。

看看你的谈话挑几个能够倒过来说的词汇和句子再注入一些幽默。

2015考研英语阅读理解精读P18—医学

2015考研英语阅读理解精读P18—医学 Passage 18(Doctor-assisted Suicide：Is It Ever an Option?) Should doctor-assisted suicide ever be a legal option? It involves the extreme measure of taking the life of a terminally ill patient when the patient is in extreme pain and the chances for recovery appear to be none.Those who argue against assisted suicide do so by considering the roles of the patient，the doctor，and nature in these situations. Should the patient take an active role in assisted suicide? When a patient is terminally ill and in great pain，those who oppose assisted suicide say that it should not be up to that patient to decide what his or her fate will be.There are greater powers at work that determine when a person dies，for example，nature.Neither science nor personal preference should take precedence over these larger forces. What role should the doctor have? Doctors，when taking the Hippocratic oath，swear to preserve life at all costs，and it is their ethical and legal duty to follow both the spirit and the letter of this oath.It is their responsibilities to heal the sick，and in the cases when healing is not possible，then the doctor is obliged to make the dying person comfortable.Doctors are trained never to hasten death.Those who oppose assisted suicide believe that doctors who do help terminally ill patients die are committing a crime，and they should be dealt with accordingly.Doctors are also，by virtue of their humanness，capable of making mistakes.Doctors could quite possibly say，for instance，that a cancer patient was terminal，and then the illness could later turn out not to be so serious.There is always an element of doubt concerning the future outcome of human affairs. The third perspective to consider when thinking about assisted suicide is the role of nature.Life is precious.Many people believe that it is not up to human beings to decide when to end their own or another’s life.Only nature determines when it is the right time for a person to die.To assist someone in suicide is not only to break criminal laws，but to break divine 1aws as well. These general concerns of those who oppose assisted suicide are valid in certain contexts of the assisted suicide question.For instance，patients cannot always be certain of their medical conditions.Pain clouds judgment，and so the patient should not be the sole arbiter of her or his own destiny.Patients do not usually choose the course of their medical treatment，so they shouldn’t be held completely responsible for decisions related to it.Doctors are also fallible，and it is understandable that they would not want to make the final decision about when death should occur.Since doctors are trained to prolong life，they usually do not elect to take it by prescribing assisted suicide. I believe that blindly opposing assisted suicide does no one a service.If someone is dying of

Dream events are imaginary, but they are related to real experiences and needs in the dreamer's life. They seem real while they are taking place. Some dreams are pleasant, others are annoying, and still others are frightening. Everyone dreams, but some persons never recall dreaming. Others remember only a little about a dream they had just before awakening and nothing about earlier dreams. No one recalls all his dreams. Dreams involve little logical thought. In most dreams, the dreamer cannot control what happens to him. The story may be confusing, and things happen that would not happen in real life. People see in most dreams, but they may also hear, smell, touch, and taste in their dreams. Most dreams occur in color. but persons who have been blind since birth do not see at all in dreams.

考研英语阅读理解精读100篇之经济类

考研英语阅读理解精读100篇之经济类 unit1 unit1 Some of the concerns surrounding Turkey’s application to join the European Union, to be voted on by the EU’s Council of Ministers on December 17th, are economic-in particular, the country’s relative poverty. Its GDP per head is less than a third of the average for the 15 pre-2004 members of the EU. But it is not far off that of one of the ten new members which joined on May 1st 2004 (Latvia), and it is much the same as those of two countries, Bulgaria and Romania, which this week concluded accession talks with the EU that could make them full members on January 1st 2007. Furthermore, the country’s recent economic progress has been, according to Donald Johnston, the secretary-general of the OECD, "stunning". GDP in the second quarter of the year was 13.4% higher than a year earlier, a rate of growth that no EU country comes close to matching. Turkey’s inflation rate has just fallen into single figures for the first time since 1972, and this week the country reached agreement with the IMF on a new three-year, $10 billion economic programme that will, according to the IMF’s managing director, Rodrigo Rato, "help Turkey... reduce inflation toward European levels, and enhance the economy’s resilience". Resilienc e has not historically been the country’s economic strong point. As recently as 2001, GDP fell by over 7%. It fell by more than 5% in 1994, and by

2018考研英语阅读解题思路：细节题_毙考题

2018考研英语阅读解题思路：细节题 理解文章的具体信息和概念含义是大纲对阅读的明确要求。细节题目的考查在每年的考研英语真题当中都会占到一半以上，考生必须给予足够重视，牢牢掌握细节题的解题方法和思路。我们以2009年的真题为例： The relationship between formal education and economic growth in poor countries is widely misunderstood by economists and politicians alike. Progress in both area is undoubtedly necessary for the social, political and intellectual development of these and all other societies; however, the conventional view that education should be one of the very highest priorities for promoting rapid economic development in poor countries is wrong. We are fortunate that it is, because building new educational systems there and putting enough people through them to improve economic performance would require two or three generations. 31. The author holds that the importance of education in poor countries______. [A] is subject to groundless doubts [B] has fallen victim of bias [C] is conventional downgraded [D] has been overestimated 解析：首先依据题干关键词the importance of education in poor countries定位到第一句The relationship between formal education and economic growth in poor countries is widely misunderstood，但是仔细研读后发现贫穷国家中正规教育与经济发展之间的关系为经济学家及政治家们普遍误解。，该句只是在说正式教育和经济发展之间的关系，并不是题干所要找的教育的重要性。继续定位到第三句however, the conventional view that education should be one of the very highest priorities for promoting rapid economic development in poor countries is wrong.那种认为教育应该是促进贫穷国家经济快速发展的重要因素之一的传统观点是错误的。句中涉及了和教育的重要性相关的信息，锁定为答案出处。作者说这种传统的观点时错误的，可以理解为作者认为贫困国家不应该把教育看的如此重要，即，现在的贫困国家太过于注重教育了，所以答案选[D] has been overestimated教育被高估了。[C] is conventional downgraded被降级轻视，和原文事实相反。A和B选项所说的怀疑和偏见态度在原文中找不到依据，可排除。

Text1 Habits are a funny thing. We reach for them mindlessly, setting our brains on auto-pilot and relaxing into the unconscious comfort of familiar routine. “Not ch In but habit rules the unreflecting herd,” William Wordsworth said in the 19th century. the ever-changing 21st century, even the word “habit” carries a negative connotation. So it seems antithetical to talk about habits in the same context as creativity and innovation. 习惯是件有趣的事情。我们无意识间养成了一些习惯，我们的大脑是自动运 转的，轻松进入熟知套路所带来的不自觉舒适状态。“这并非选择，而是习惯控 制了那些没有思想的人”，这是威廉?华兹华斯（William Wordsworth）19世纪时 说的话。在现在这个日新月异的21世纪，甚至习惯这个词本身也带有负面涵义。 因此，在创造和革新的背景下来谈论习惯，似乎显得有点矛盾。 But brain researchers have discovered that when we consciously develop new habits, we create parallel synaptic paths, and even entirely new brain cells, that can jump our trains of thought onto new, innovative tracks. But don’t bother trying to kil off old habits; once those ruts of procedure are worn into the hippocampus, they there to stay. Instead, the new habits we deliberately ingrain into ourselves create parallel pathways that can bypass those old roads. 但大脑研究人员发现，当我们有意识地培养新的习惯的时候，我们创建了平 行路径，甚至是全新的脑细胞，可以让我们的思路跳转到新的创新轨道上来。但 是，不必费心试图摈弃各种旧习惯；一旦这些程序惯例融进大脑，它们就会留在 那里。相反，我们刻意培养的新习惯会创建平行路径能避开原来那些老路。 “The first thing needed for innovation is a fascination with wonder,” says D Markova, author of “The Open Mind” and an executive change consultant for Professional Thinking Partners. “But we are taught instead to ‘decide,’ just as decide is to kill off president calls himself ‘the Decider.’” She adds, however, that “to all possibilities but one.

2009考研英语阅读理解精读100篇(2)

TEXT 2 He emerged, all of a sudden, in 1957: the most explosive new poetic talent of the English post-war era. Poetry specialised, at that moment, in the wry chronicling of the everyday. The poetry of Yorkshire-born Ted Hughes, first published in a book called “The Hawk in the Rain” when he was 27, was unlike anything written by his immediate predecessors. Driven by an almost Jacobean rhetoric, it had a visionary fervour. Its most eye-catching characteristic was Hughes's ability to get beneath the skins of animals: foxes, otters, pigs. These animals were the real thing all right, but they were also armorial devices—symbols of the countryside and lifeblood of the earth in which they were rooted. It gave his work a raw, primal stink. It was not only England that thought so either. Hughes's book was also published in America, where it won the Galbraith prize, a major literary award. But then, in 1963, Sylvia Plath, a young American poet whom he had first met at Cambridge University in 1956, and who became his wife in the summer of that year, committed suicide. Hughes was vilified for long after that, especially by feminists in America. In 1998, the year he died, Hughes broke his own self-imposed public silence about their relationship in a book of loose-weave poe ms called “Birthday Letters”.In this new and exhilarating collection of real letters, Hughes returns to the issue of his first wife's death, which he calls his “big and unmanageable event”. He felt his talent muffled by the perpetual eavesdropping upon his every move. Not until he decided to publish his own account of their relationship did the burden begin to lighten. The analysis is raw, pained and ruthlessly self-aware. For all the moral torment, the writing itself has the same rush and vigour that possessed Hughes's early poetry.

2019考研英语阅读理解常考题型总结

2019考研英语阅读理解常见题型总结 来源：智阅网 考研英语阅读理解虽然难度不小，但是还是有规律可循。掌握好了规律，可以有效提高我们的复习效率和复习成绩。所以，就来说说阅读理解的常见题型有哪些。 1.主旨大意题。 这类题实质考察考生对中心思想的理解，难度不高，具体应对技巧如下： A.关注各段落首句，尤其是第一段首句，这与西方人思维相关，他们习惯开门见山表达出自己的观点，然后广泛引用材料去论述。因此，一般而言首段的首句构成文章的中心句，而各段的首句构成各段的中心。 B.关注首段末句。有些作者习惯先列出一些传统的观点或先对一些具体现象进行说明，然后提出与之不同的观点或在结尾对现象进行总结，在接下来的段落中继续论述。对于这类文章，如果作者没有提出不同的观点，则最后总结性语句为文章中心，一旦提出不同或完全对立的观点，又在后文中加以论述，则作者提出的新观点为文章中心;如果新老观点均是对同一个结果的论述，那么该论述的结论为文章中心。 C.当不能直接找出主题句时，通常文章中作者给予叙述较多或强调较多的某一事物或某一观点即文章的中心。在题目作答时，可采用中心词定位法，排除不含中心词的选项，对比有中心词的选项，选择最接近中心的选项。 D.如果对选项仍有异议，可把有异议的选项逐个带入文章中，看哪个能更好的囊括文章中心。这是一个检验的过程。 2.事实细节题。 此类题占阅读总分40分中的50%左右，因此十分重要。注意，这类问题与推理性问题截然相反，都可以从原文中找到答案，只不过

为了迷惑考生，常常将原文进行改写，换一种说法。所以，照抄原文，一字不改的不一定就是答案，而与原文意思相同的，才是正确的。其基本应对技巧如下： A.基本原则是以中心为导向，忠实原文为基础，千万不可主观臆断，最好的方法是回到原文的出题点进行揣摩。 B.必须看清题目，尤其是当题目就某一个具体细节并且脱离文章中心的提问。一般来说，细节问题绝大部分是围绕文章中心进行出题，但不排除文中就一些具体的，因果互动现象的内容提问。 3.词汇短语题。 其分值不高，考察范围可分为两类。第一，纲内词汇词义的引申。考察考生对所熟悉的词汇在特定语境下正确含义的理解。一般来说，该词的本意不是解，但是其引申义上仍可以找到本意的影子。第二，纲外词汇词义的推断。 4.推断性问题。 此类题大概占20%左右的分值，总体难度不大，是考生的必得分点。中心导向依然是解题的宏观主线，其关键是忠实原文的推断。其应对策略和事实细节题类似，考生在该题型上的主要失误在于脱离文章主观臆断造成的。 5.语气态度题。 对作者态度的判断是构成阅读理解的两条宏观主线之一。因此，正确辨明作者对所叙述事物的态度，不仅关系到本类题型的解答，也潜在影响到其他问题的正确解答。这类题目主要从作者文中描述事物所用到的形容词，副词，动词等表达感情色彩的词汇入手。当选项不能确定时，再回到原文中找关键词。对这类题型，分清褒贬一般不难，是考生的必得分点。 我们还可以做做何老师的2019《考研英语阅读思路解析》，有助于我们更好地理解阅读理解这个题型，并且还能培养好应试心理。

2015考研英语阅读理解精读P18—工学类

2015考研英语阅读理解精读P18—工学 类 Passage 18 Tennis hopeful Jamie Hunt, 16, felt he could not become a world-class junior player while attending a regular school. The international circuit has players on the road 50% of the time--and it's hard to focus on your backhand when you're worrying about being on time for homeroom. So last year Hunt, who hones his ground strokes at Elite TNT Tennis Academy in April Sound, Texas, enrolled for academics in the $9,750-a-year University of Miami Online High School (UMOHS), a virtual school that caters to athletes. "The online school gives me the flexibility I need," says Hunt. "The workload is the same, but I can do it anywhere. It's nicer to ask a question face-to-face with a teacher, but in some ways it prepares me better for college because I have to be more independent." A year ago, Hunt's world junior ranking was 886; now it's 108. Virtual high schools, which allow students to take classes via PC, have emerged as an increasingly popular education alternative, particularly for on-the-go athletes. UMOHS has more than 400 students enrolled, 65% of whom are athletes. Accredited by the 100-year-old Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, UMOHS offers honors and advanced-placement classes. All course material is online, along with assignments and due dates. For help, says principal Howard Liebman, "a student may e-mail, instant message or call the teacher." Dallas mom Lori Bannon turned to another online school, Laurel Springs in Ojai, Calif. Bannon, who has a medical degree from Harvard, didn't want to compromise the education of her daughter Lindsay, 13, an élite gymnast who spends eight hours a day in the gym. "Regular school was not an option," says Bannon, "but I wanted to make sure she could go back at grade level if she quit gymnastics." Laurel Springs' enrollment has increased 35% a year for the past four years, to 1,800 students. At least 25% are either athletes or child entertainers. Educators are split on the merits of such schools. Paul Orehovec, an enrollment officer for the University of Miami, admits, "I was somewhat of a skeptic. But when I looked into their programs and accreditation, I was excited. UMOHS is the first online school to be granted membership in the National Honor Society." Kevin Roy, Elite's director of education, sees pitfalls and potential in virtual schools. "You will never have that wonderful teacher who inspires you for life," says Roy. "But the virtual school offers endless possibilities. I don't know where education's imagination will take this." 注(1)：本文选自Time;11/29/2004, p149-149, 1/2p, 1c; 注(2)：本文习题命题模仿对象2004年真题text 4第1、2题(1、2)，text 1 第2 题(3)，text 3第5 题(5)和2000年真题text 4第4题(4); 1.
